Score Attack is an event that puts your gaming skills to the test. Every week, there will be a Flash/Unity/Web game of my choice and in that week, people will try to one-up themselves in classic highscore fashion. After the week is over, a new game begins and so on. Simple, really.
If you're a returning player, skip here:
Here are the changes in this version:
- This time, there will only be 5 weeks of 5 main games. I'll double that if we get enough attention.
- We've got PRIZES for the 1st placers and Runner-Ups. A 1st placer cannot get a prize if he/she wins 1st twice in a row. The Prizes are Steam Keys.
- I might include Bonus Conditions that will net a prize of its own. I might also include bonus games from past Score Attacks or completely new ones.
How to Play:
Gonna make this real simple. First, post a screenshot of your score (I will say which screens are acceptable). The screenshot MUST include the browser from which you are playing (as an anti-cheating standard). Only then will I accept your screenie as legit.
Rules:
1. No Cheating. I know, it's really obvious. But we are playing for fun so why bother putting the effort (the prizes are cheap).
1a. If anyone thinks a person has cheated, they are free to call them out on it. The thread will then deliberate on whether or not they deserve the score.
2. Remember the screenshot rules. People often forget this so I'm saying it again: INCLUDE THE BROWSER IN YOUR SCREENSHOTS.
3. Only post screenies from the links I provide. If you have problems with this, say so and I'll include your exception in my link list.
4. Have Fun.
Feel free to discuss the games as well in this thread. Tips/Tricks. Stuff like that.
ANYWAYS: Let's get Round 1 ready shall we?

Wasn't expecting anything like this, were you? This game is...unique. It blends the randomly generated roguelike genre with everyone's favorite Minesweeper type. In this game, you're a hacker who must traverse 8 (or 16 I think) rounds of possibly-zombie infected tiles. On the way you might encounter powerups, special infected, and if you manage to survive and retire properly in the end you'll get a 30% boost to your score. Moreover, each level grants you an upgrade, giving you multiple builds and possibilities to score. Are you the kind who will just plod through zombies or are you the more cautious type?
There are 2 modes of play: Short and Long. And I will offer 2 prizes each for the winners of both types (but they can't be the same guy or the winner of a previous round). The screenshot to post is NOT the endgame screen, but rather the score screen that appears when you mouse over the "S" or "L" type games in the menu. Fullscreen is allowed. And this is very important: Use your forum username when scoring in this game. Just so we'll know it's all legit.
Bonus Objective: You must fulfill any 1 of the following:
a) Short Mode with a score no lower than 100,000
b) Long Mode with a score no lower than 350,000
If your scores reach these conditions^ they will be excluded from the normal Top-Ten. There will only be one prize for this Bonus Condition and that will be the user with the higher score difference.
Example: Say Player A has a score of 101,000 on Short Mode and Player B has a score of 350,200 on Long Mode. Player A will win because he has a score difference of 1,000 as opposed to Player B's 200. But Player B score will be eligible in the Normal Objective Scoreboard.
*You cannot get all prizes at the same time, it's one objective or the other.
Happy playing, people.
